Now with Pelosi's attempt to strong arm a loud and gruff antiwar Lefty into a leadership position rebuffed, it appears that the congressional Dems are not going to allow Pelosi to stack the leadership with political lightning rods... which does not bode well for her support of impeached federal judge Alcee Hastings.

A House Divided
Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-San Francisco) tried to prevent Minority Leader Steny Hoyer from being the new Majority Leader and attempted to install her ideological peer, John Murtha, in Hoyer's stead. The newly Democrat-controlled House voted 149-86 for Hoyer, dealing Pelosi her first loss before she has even assumed the official title as Speaker.
This is bad news for the Far Left who have been clamoring that the Democrat victory was due to their constant whining and complaining about Iraq. In fact, all of the decisive House seats that tipped the balance to the Democrats were won by Dems running to the right - as conservatives.
